After experimenting with music directors like Himesh Reshammiya in Zameen and Vishal & Shekhar in Golmaal, Rohit Shetty has decided to do what very few may have done before. Yes, there are a record number of music directors in his next venture, Sunday, who have been assigned the task of contributing in the album. In fact, there is  one composer for each track. That must be a rare feat in itself. Even Sanjay Gupta who started this trend, cannot boast of more than three different composers for his albums. So let's see if Rohit's experimentations will pay off or will it be a case of too many cooks spoiling the broth!

Sandeep Chowta who made his presence felt in Ramgopal Varma movies like Mast, Satya, Company, Musafir, etc., gets another chance to showcase his talent with the very unique, foot-tapping, "chillax" number, 'Missing Sunday'. Sandeep Chowta deserves all the accolades for providing us with new electronic sounds, (just hear the unique beginning) with a completely new style of musical arrangements, which borders slightly more on hip hop. The rhythm utilizes a relaxed pace, like the day itself, when we just relax and chill out. The chorus, 'The Missing Sunday' is very infectious and the rap portions by Earl Edgar is sung more in a reggae style. The lyrics in Hinglish (Hindi and English), by Farhad Sajid are identifiable as it is the language of the youth and is in sync with the youthful feel of the movie. The lead female singer,  Mahua Kamath is the ex-Viva (Indian girl band) girl and is good with  her usual pop style singing. An excellent title track which makes for a pleasant hear, and a very unusual one too.

The lovely synthesized piece, which can rightly be called its signature  tune (as its omnipresent in the promos), commences the superb 'Sunday Theme'. The tune dominates the whole proceedings. What makes it different is that it's an all English version, with nice rap where the specialists, Joy and Clinton do the honours. The drumming makes it more rock and roll in character, so do the plate sounds. The intermittent   use of electronic flute is awesome. All credit to Amar Mohile for  creating a very different version of the unique title track.

'Missing Sunday- Remix' is a commendable job by the arrangers as the distinct whacky flavour of the song remains intact, so does the infectious, relaxed rhythm. The added seasonings fit in with the scheme of things and do not spoil the beauty of the original.
